Famous quotes containing the word family:

    I think the ideal situation for a family is to be completely incestuous.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)

    For every nineteenth-century middle-class family that protected its wife and child within the family circle, there was an Irish or a German girl scrubbing floors in that home, a Welsh boy mining coal to keep the home-baked goodies warm, a black girl doing the family laundry, a black mother and child picking cotton to be made into clothes for the family, and a Jewish or an Italian daughter in a sweatshop making “ladies” dresses or artificial flowers for the family to purchase.
    Stephanie Coontz (20th century)

    Though a family be a thousand, there can be only one in charge.
    Chinese proverb.
